Its not shit. See it if you can. The whole thing is quite long but there is always something new to look at. Some scenes run long, but I suspect this is expected, perhaps intentional. I didn't love it all, but plan to re-watch some time in the future and see if the parts i liked and disliked swap places. Lots of themes going on, can probably write endlessly on this movie. Some of the best cow drumming I have ever seen.
